PS: Any chance to fix install on systems with no readline?
I can't tell if it's config or makemake or what
but MacOS simply fails, I have to run it by
$ clisp -B /usr/local/lib/clisp -M ~/CLISP/clisp-2.33.2/try-to-disable-readline-and-sigsegv/lispinit.mem
because installation croaks.

1. sigsegv is crucial for generational GC. it pays to ensure that it
works.
2. if your readline is broken but configure does not detect that, you
should run the top-level configure like this:
$ ./configure --with-noreadline --build build-no-readline
3. it would be very nice if you could figure out _why_ configure does
not detect that readline is broken. see <src/m4/readline.m4>.
Specifically, you wrote:
undefined symbols in streams.c
rl_basic_quote_characters
rl_gnu_readline_p
undefined symbols at link time
_META
_history_list
_rl_basic_quote_characters
_rl_gnu_readline_p
_rl_named_function
_rl_refresh_line
_rl_variable_bind
could you please look at your readline and see what its version is?
maybe you have several readline installations?
(the broken one that comes with MacOS and a newer one that comes with
the development tools)
PS. Please make sure that your mailer respects "Reply-to:" and
